gitk: Improve handling of -- and ambiguous arguments
This makes gitk more consistent with git rev-list and git log in its
handling of arguments that could be either a revision or a filename;
now gitk displays an error message and quits, rather than treating it
as a revision and getting an error in the underlying git log. Now
gitk always passes "--" to git log even if no filenames are being
specified.
It also makes gitk display errors in invoking git log in a window
rather than on stderr, and makes gitk stop looking for a -d flag
when it sees a "--" argument.
gitk: Use git log and add support for --left-right
This is based on patches from Linus Torvalds and Junio Hamano, so the
ideas here are theirs.
This makes gitk use "git log -z --pretty=raw" instead of "git rev-list"
to generate the list of commits, and also makes it grok the "<" and ">"
markers that git log (and git rev-list) output with the --left-right
flag to indicate which side of a symmetric diff a commit is reachable
from. Left-side commits are drawn with a triangle pointing leftwards
instead of a circle, and right-side commits are drawn with a triangle
pointing rightwards. The commitlisted list is used to store the
left/right information as well as the information about whether each
commit is on the boundary.
In commit 66e46f37de3ed3211a8ae0e8fc09c063bc3a1e08 I changed gitk to
store ids in rowrangelist and idrowranges rather than row numbers,
but I missed two places in the layouttail procedure. This resulted
in occasional errors such as the "can't read "commitrow(0,8572)":
no such element in array" error reported by Mark Levedahl. This fixes
it by using the id rather than the row number.
[PATCH] gitk: Fix for tree view ending in nested directories
Unroll the prefix stack when assigning treeheights when leaving
proc treeview. Previously, when the ls-tree output ended in
multiple nested directories (for instance in a repository with a
single file "foo/bar/baz"), $treeheight("foo/bar/") was assigned
twice, and $treeheight("foo/") was never assigned. This led to
an error when expanding the "foo" directory in the gitk treeview.

This was a hangover from before the "Files" and "Pickaxe" parts of
the Find function were moved to the highlight facility in commit 60f7a7dc4904ba4baab44b70e2675a01e6172f54. It serves no useful
purpose any more, so this removes it.
This reworks the way that the "Find" button (and the /, ?, ^F, and ^G
keys) works. Previously, pressing the "Find" button would cause gitk
to go off and scan through every commit to see which commits matched,
and the user interface was completely unreponsive during that time.
Now the searching is done in chunks using the scheduler, so the UI
still responds, and the search stops as soon as a matching commit is
found.
The highlighting of matches using a yellow background is now done in
the commit-drawing code and the highlighting code. This ensures that
all the commits that are visible that match are highlighted without
the search code having to find them all.
This also fixes a bug where previously-drawn commits that need to be
highlighted were not being highlighted.
gitk: Update selection background colorbar in prefs dialog
The callback function was incorrectly set to update the background
colorbar when updated the selection background. This did not affect the
colors chosen or their use, just their presentation in the preferences
dialog box.
The tabstop must be a smallish positive integer, and a spinbox is the
accepted UI control to accomplish this limiting rather than the text
entry box previously used.
gitk: Add a progress bar to show progress while resetting
Since git reset now gets chatty while resetting, we were getting errors
reported when a reset was done using the "reset branch to here" menu
item. With this we now read the progress messages from git reset and
update a progress bar. Because git reset outputs the progress messages
to standard error, and Tcl treats messages to standard error as error
messages, we have to invoke git reset via a shell and redirect standard
error into standard output.
This also fixes a bug in computing descendent heads when head ids
are changed via a reset.
gitk: Improve handling of whitespace and special chars in filenames
The main thing here is better parsing of the diff --git lines in the
output of git diff-tree -p. We now cope with filenames in quotes with
special chars escaped. If the filenames contain spaces they aren't
quoted, however, which can create difficulties in parsing. We get
around the difficulties by detecting the case when the filename hasn't
changed (chop the part after "diff --git " in two and see if the halves
match apart from a/ in one and b/ in the other), and if it hasn't
changed, we just use one half. If the filename has changed we wait
for the "rename from" and "rename to" lines, which give the old and
new filenames unambiguously.
This also improves the parsing of the output of git diff-tree.
Instead of using lindex to extract the filename, we take the part from
the first tab on, and if it starts with a quote, we use [lindex $str 0]
to remove the quotes and convert the escapes.
This also gets rid of some unused tagging of the diff text, uses
[string compare] instead of [regexp] in some places, and fixes the
regexp for detecting the @@ hunk-separator lines (the regexp wasn't
accepting a single number, as in "-0,0 +1" for example).
gitk: Fix bug causing nearby tags/heads to sometimes not be displayed
When we compute descendent heads and descendent/ancestor tags, we
cache the results. We need to be careful to invalidate the cache
when we add stuff to the graph. Also make sure that when we cache
descendent heads for a node we only cache the heads that are actually
descendents of that node.
gitk: Limit how often we change the canvas scrolling region
For some unknown reason, changing the scrolling region on the canvases
provokes multiple milliseconds worth of computation in the X server,
and this can end up slowing gitk down significantly. This works around
the problem by limiting the rate at which we update the scrolling region
after the first 100 rows to at most 2 per second.
gitk: Add a "reset branch to here" row context-menu operation
This adds an entry to the menu that comes up when the user does a
right-click on a row. The new entry allows the user to reset the
currently checked-out head to the commit for the row that they did
the right-click on. The user has to select what type of reset to
do, and confirm the reset, via a dialog box that pops up.
The information in childlist is a duplicate of what's in the children
array, and it wasn't being accessed often enough to be really worth
keeping the list around as well.
We were doing two execs for each tag - one to map the tag ID to a
commit ID and one to read the contents of the tag for later display.
This speeds up the process by not reading the contents of the tag
(instead it is read later if needed), and by using the -d flag to
git show-ref, which gives us refs/tags/foo^{} lines which give us
the commit ID. Also this uses string operations instead of regexps.
gitk: Show local uncommitted changes as a fake commit
If there are local changes in the repository, i.e., git-diff-index HEAD
produces some output, then this optionally displays an extra row in
the graph as a child of the HEAD commit (but with a red circle to
indicate that it's not a real commit). There is a checkbox in the
preferences window to control whether gitk does this or not.
Clicking on the extra row shows the diffs between the working directory
and the HEAD (using git diff-index -p). The right-click menu on the
extra row allows the user to generate a patch containing the local diffs,
or to display the diffs between the working directory and any commit.
This only draws as much of the graph lines as is visible. This can
happen by adding coordinates on to an existing graph line or by
creating a new line. This means that we only need to have laid out
and optimized as much of the graph as is actually visible in order to
draw it, including the lines (previously we didn't draw a graph
line until we had laid out and optimized to the end of a segment of
the line, i.e. down to a down-arrow or to the row where the line's
commit is displayed). This also lets us get rid of the linesegends
list, and gives us an easy workaround for the X server bug that
causes long lines to be misdrawn. This also gets rid of the use
of rowoffsets in drawlineseg et al.
gitk: Store ids in rowrangelist and idrowranges rather than row numbers
This removes the need for insertrow to go through rowrangelist and
idrowranges and adjust a lot of entries. The first entry for a given
id is now the row number of the first child, not that row number + 1,
and rowranges compensates for that so its callers didn't have to
change. This adds a ranges argument to drawlineseg so that we can
avoid calling rowranges a second time inside drawlineseg (all its
callers already called rowranges).
gitk: Cope with commit messages with carriage-returns and initial blank lines
In some repositories imported from other systems we can get carriage
return characters in the commit message, which leads to a multi-line
headline being displayed in the summary window, which looks bad.
Also some commit messages start with one or more blank lines, which
leads to an empty headline. This fixes these problems.
gitk: Implement a simple scheduler for the compute-intensive stuff
This allows us to do compute-intensive processing, such as laying out
the graph, relatively efficiently while also having the GUI be
reasonably responsive. The problem previously was that file events
were serviced before X events, so reading from another process which
supplies data quickly (hi git rev-list :) could mean that X events
didn't get processed for a long time.
With this, gitk finishes laying out the graph slightly sooner and
still responds to the GUI while doing so.
gitk: Improve the behaviour of the initial selection
It used to be that if you clicked on a line while gitk was still drawing
stuff, it would immediately re-select the first line of the display.
This fixes that.
gitk: Don't try to list large numbers of tags or heads in the details pane
With some large repositories, a commit can end up on thousands of
branches, which results in an extremely long "Branches:" line in the
details window, and that results in the window being extremely slow
to scroll.
This fixes it by just showing "many (N)" after "Branches:", "Follows:"
or "Precedes:", where N is the number of heads or tags. The limit
is currently set at 20 but could be made configurable (and the "many"
could be a link to pop up a window listing them all in case anyone
really wants to know).
gitk: New infrastructure for working out branches & previous/next tags
Instead of working out descendent heads and descendent & ancestor
branches in a two-pass algorithm, this reads and stores a simplified
version of the graph topology, and works out descendent/ancestor
tags and descendent heads on demand (with a bit of caching).
The advantages of this are, first, that we now don't have to use
--topo-order on the git rev-list process. Secondly, we don't have
to re-read the whole graph when tags or heads change or even when
the graph changes. Since we can cope with parents coming before
children, we can update the graph by running a git rev-list with
arguments that just give us the new commits, and merge the new
commits into the simplified graph.
The graph is simplified in the sense that commits with exactly one
parent and one child (which is >90% of them in most cases) are grouped
together into arcs joining nodes or 'branch/merge points', which are
the commits that don't have exactly 1 parent and 1 child. This reduces
the size of the graph substantially and decreases the time to traverse
it correspondingly.
[PATCH] gitk: Allow specifying tabstop as other than default 8 characters.
Not all projects use the convention that one tabstop = 8 characters, and
a common convention is to use one tabstop = one level of indent. For such
projects, using 8 characters per tabstop often shows too much whitespace
per indent. This allows the user to configure the number of characters
to use per tabstop.

[PATCH] prefer "git COMMAND" over "git-COMMAND" in gitk

are symbolic links in a personal bin directory to the real git and gitk.

Make gitk save and restore window pane position on Linux and Cygwin.
Subtle bugs remained on both Cygwin and Linux that caused the various
window panes to be restored in positions different than where the user
last placed them. Sergey Vlasov posed a pair of suggested fixes to this,
what is done here is slightly different. The basic fix here involves
a) explicitly remembering and restoring the sash positions for the upper
window, and b) using paneconfigure to redundantly set height and width of
other elements. This redundancy is needed as Cygwin Tcl has a nasty habit
of setting pane sizes to zero if their slaves are not configured with a
specific size, but Linux Tcl does not honor the specific size given.

gitk was saving widget sizes and positions when the main window was

the saved geometry was captured using "winfo geometry .", rather than
"wm geometry ." Under Linux, these two return different answers and the
latter one is correct.

The gitk gui layout was completely broken on Cygwin. If gitk was started
without previous geometry in ~/.gitk, the user could drag the window sashes
to get a useable layout. However, if ~/.gitk existed, this was not possible
at all.
The fix was to rewrite makewindow, changing the toplevel containers and
the particular geometry information saved between sessions. Numerous bugs
in both the Cygwin and the Linux Tk versions make this a delicate
balancing act: the version here works in both but many subtle variants
are competely broken in one or the other environment.
Three user visible changes result:
1 - The viewer is fully functional under Cygwin.
2 - The search bar moves from the bottom to the top of the lower left
pane. This was necessary to get around a layout problem on Cygwin.
3 - The window size and position is saved and restored between sessions.
Again, this is necessary to get around a layout problem on Cygwin.

gitk: Fix enabling/disabling of menu items on Mac OS X
It seems that under Mac OS X, the menus get some extra entries (or
possibly fewer entries), leading to references to entries by an
absolute number being off. This leads to an error when invoking
gitk --all under Mac OS X, because the "Edit view" and "Delete view"
entries aren't were gitk expects them, and so enabling them gives an
error.
This changes the code so it refers to menu entries by their content,
which should solve the problem.

gitk: Fix some bugs in the new cherry-picking code
When inserting the new commit row for the cherry-picked commit, we weren't
advancing the selected line (if there is one), and we weren't updating
commitlisted properly.
gitk: Improve responsiveness while reading and layout out the graph
This restructures layoutmore so that it can take a time limit and do
limited amounts of graph layout and graph optimization, and return 1
if it exceeded the time limit before finishing everything it could do.
Also getcommitlines reads at most half a megabyte each time, to limit
the time it spends parsing the commits to about a tenth of a second.
Also got rid of the unused ncmupdate variable while I was at it.
This does a git-cherry-pick -r to cherry-pick the commit that was
right-clicked on to the head of the current branch. This would work
better with some minor changes to the git-cherry-pick script.
Along the way, this changes desc_heads to record the names of the
descendent heads rather than their IDs.
This menu allows you to check out a branch and to delete a branch.
If you ask to delete a branch that has commits that aren't on any
other branch, gitk will prompt for confirmation before doing the
deletion.
gitk: Recompute ancestor/descendent heads/tags when rereading refs
We weren't updating the desc_heads, desc_tags and anc_tags arrays when
rereading the set of heads/tags/etc. The tricky thing to get right
here is restarting the computation correctly when we are only half-way
through it.
This makes the colors for the diff old/new lines and hunk headers
configurable, as well as the background and foreground (text color)
of the various panes. There is now a GUI in the edit->preferences
window to set them.
gitk: Show branch name(s) as well, if "show nearby tags" is enabled
This is a small extension to the code that reads the complete commit
graph, to make it compute descendent heads as well as descendent tags.
We don't exclude descendent heads that are descendents of other
descendent heads as we do for tags, since it is useful to know all the
branches that a commit is on.
This adds a feature to the diff display window where it will show
the tags that this commit follows (is a descendent of) and precedes
(is an ancestor of). Specifically, it will show the tags for all
tagged descendents that are not a descendent of another tagged
descendent of this commit, and the tags for all tagged ancestors
that are not ancestors of another tagged ancestor of this commit.
To do this, gitk reads the complete commit graph using git rev-list
and performs a couple of traversals of the tree. This is done in
the background, but since it can be time-consuming, there is an option
to turn it off in the `edit preferences' window.
gitk: Add a goto next/previous highlighted commit function
This is invoked by shift-down/shift-up. It relies on a patch to
git-diff-tree that has recently gone into the git repository, commit
ID e0c97ca6 (without this it may just sit there doing waiting for
git-diff-tree when looking for the next/previous highlight).
gitk: Provide ability to highlight based on relationship to selected commit
This provides a way to highlight commits that are, or are not,
descendents or ancestors of the currently selected commit. It's
still rough around the edges but seems to be useful even so.
Bug noted by Junio C Hamano: show_error can be passed "." (root
window) as its $w argument, but appending ".m" and ".ok" results in
creating "..m" and "..ok" as window paths, which were invalid.
This fixes it in a slightly different way from Junio's patch, though.
The code to extract a message part from the error message was
not passing the error message to [string range], and resulted
in the show_error not getting called.

gitk: Move "pickaxe" find function to highlight facility
This removes the "Files" and "Pickaxe" parts of the "Find" function,
so Find is now just about searching the commit data. We now highlight
the commits that match the Find string (without having to press Find),
and have a drop-down menu for selecting whether the git-diff-tree based
highlighting is done on paths or on adding/removing a given string.
This applies a bold highlight to entries in the file list pane in the
bottom right corner when it is displaying the list of changed files.
This doesn't yet highlight file list entries when it is in tree view
mode.
[PATCH] gitk: Display commit messages with word wrap
Some people put very long strings into commit messages, which then
become invisible in gitk (word wrapping in the commit details window is
turned off, and there is no horizontal scroll bar). Enabling word wrap
for just the commit message looks much better.
Wrapping is controlled by the "wrapcomment" option in ~/.gitk. By
default this option is set to "none", which disables wrapping; setting
it to "word" enables word wrap for commit messages.

gitk: Make a row of controls for controlling highlighting
Now there is a bar across the middle (just below the bar containing
the sha1 ID, find string etc.) which controls highlighting. There are
three ways to highlight: the user can highlight commits affecting
a list of paths, commits in a view, or commits where the author or
committer matches any of a list of strings (case-insensitive). The
elements of the list of paths and list of names are delimited by
whitespace with shell quoting rules.
gitk: Fix display of "(...)" for parents/children we haven't drawn
In the commit details window, we were displaying "(...)" for the
headlines of parents and children that haven't been drawn, without
making any attempt to get those headlines. This adds a call to
getcommit to commit_descriptor so we get those headlines.
gitk: Allow view to specify arbitrary arguments to git-rev-list
The list of arguments to git-rev-list, including arguments that
select the range of commits, is now a part of the view specification.
If any arguments are given to gitk, they become part of the
"Command line" view, and the non-file arguments become the default
for any new views created.
Getting an error from git-rev-list is no longer fatal; instead the
error window pops up, and when you press OK, the main window just
shows "No commits selected".
The git-rev-list arguments are entered in an entry widget in the
view editor window using shell quoting conventions, not Tcl quoting
conventions.
gitk: Fix file list display when files are renamed
The conversion of the file list to use a text widget assumed incorrectly
that the list of files from git-diff-tree -r would correspond 1-1 with
the diff sections in the output of git-diff-tree -r -p -C, which is
not true when renames are detected. This fixes it by keeping the
elements in the difffilestart list in the order they appear in the
file list window.
Since this means that the elements of difffilestart are no longer
necessarily in ascending order, it's somewhat hard to do the dynamic
highlighting in the file list as the diff window is scrolled, so I
have taken that out for now.
gitk: Basic support for highlighting one view within another
With this, one view can be used as a highlight for another, so that
the commits that are in the highlight view are displayed in bold.
This required some fairly major changes to how the list of ids,
parents, children, and id to row mapping were stored for each view.
We can now be reading in several views at once; for all except the
current view, we just update the displayorder and the lists of parents
and children for the view.
This also creates a little bit of infrastructure for handling the
watch cursor.
You can now select whether you want to see the patch for a commit
or the whole tree. If you select the tree, gitk will now display
the commit message plus the contents of one file in the bottom-left
pane, when you click on the name of the file in the bottom-right pane.
This lets us do things like highlighting all the entries for which
the corresponding part of the diff is at least partly visible in the
commit/patch display window, and in future it will let us display
the file list in a hierarchical form rather than as a flat file list.
This patch partly changes the background color for remote refs.
It makes it easy to quickly distinguish remote refs from local
developer branches.
I ignore remote HEADs, as these really should be drawn as
aliases to other heads. But there is no simple way to
detect that HEADs really are aliases for other refs via
"git-ls-remote".

gitk: Implement "permanent" views (stored in ~/.gitk)
With this the user can now mark a view as "permanent" and it will
appear in the list every time gitk is started (until it is deleted).
Also tidied up the view definition window, and changed the view
menu to use radiobuttons for the view selections so there is some
feedback as to which is the current view.
gitk: Use git-rev-parse only to identify file/dir names on cmd line
This uses git-rev-parse --no-revs --no-flags to give us just the
file and directory names on the command line, so that we can create
the "Command line" view if any were specified. All other arguments
just get passed to git-rev-list (without a pass through git-rev-parse).
gitk: Let git-rev-list do the argument list parsing
This is a fix for a problem reported by Jim Radford where an argument
list somewhere overflows on repositories with lots of tags. In fact
it's now unnecessary to use git-rev-parse since git-rev-list can take
all the arguments that git-rev-parse can. This is inspired by but not
the same as the solutions suggested by Jim Radford and Linus Torvalds.
When moving backwards or forwards through the history list, this
automatically switches the view so that each point that we jump to
is shown in the same view that it was originally displayed in.
gitk: Fix bug caused by missing commitlisted elements
This bug was reported by Yann Dirson, and results in an 'Error:
expected boolean value but got ""' dialog when scrolling to the bottom
of the graph under some circumstances. The issue is that git-rev-list
isn't outputting all the boundary commits when it is asked for commits
affecting only certain files. We already cope with that by adding the
missing boundary commits in addextraid, but there we weren't adding a
0 to the end of the commitlisted list when we added the extra id to
the end of the displayorder list.
This fixes it by appending 0 to commitlisted in addextraid, thus keeping
commitlisted and displayorder in sync.
gitk: Don't reread git-rev-list output from scratch on view switch
Previously, if we switched away from a view before we had finished
reading the git-rev-list output for it and laying out the graph, we
would discard the partially-laid-out graph and reread it from
scratch if we switched back to the view. With this, we preserve the
state of the partially-laid-out graph in viewdata($view) and restore
it if we switch back. The pipe to git-rev-list remains open but we
just don't read from it any more until we switch back to that view.
This also makes linesegends a list rather than an array, which turns
out to be slightly faster, as well as being easier to save and restore.
The `update' menu item now kills the git-rev-list process if there is
one still running when we do the update.
- don't re-read refs when switching views, it's too slow; just do
it if the user did File->Update
- make the view menu use the uifont
- if we have a graph line selected, unselect it before changing the view
- if a row is selected and appears in the new view, but we have to
read in the new view, select that row when we come across it
- if no row was previously selected, or if we don't find the previously
selected row in the new view, select the first row
If a view is selected it will now just update that view.
Also fixed a few other things - if you switch away from a view while
gitk is still reading it in, then switch back, gitk will re-read it
from scratch. We now re-read the references when switching views.
If something was selected before a view change, and we need to read
in the new view, we now select the previously-selected commit when
we come across it.
Fixed a bug in setting of rowrangelist plus a couple of other minor
things.
This makes the font used in the UI elements of gitk configurable in the
same way the other fonts are. The default fonts used in the Xft build of
tk8.5 are particularily horrific, making this change more important
there.

The idea is to have to normal keys change the selected line:
- Home selects first commit
- End selects last commit
- Up selects previous commit
- Down selects next commit
- PageUp moves selected line one page up
- PageDown moves selected line one page down
...and together with the Control key, it moves the commits view:
- Control-Home views first page of commits
- Control-End views last page of commits
- Control-Up moves commit view one line up
- Control-Down moves commit view one line down
- Control-PageUp moves commit view one page up
- Control-PageDown moves commit view one page down
